While driving to his home, in town
Cottonwood, during Saturdays rain and
hail-storm, Fred Walther had narrow
escape from being killed. The hail
frightened the horses and they ran into
ditch, the shock throwing tMr. Wal
Their from the wagon and directly un-
der one of the front wheels, the wheel
passing over his right shoulder and leg.
He managed to hang onto one Of the
lines and his wife, who was in the wa

efforts resulted in stopping the horses
after short run. Strange to say no
bones were broken and Walther es
capped with but few bruises to remind
him of his narrow escape.

the matter for some slime a bright idea
struck him. He made the farmer agree
to deliver the milk to town every morn

home with him. All are happy except
the farmer who has 10 deliver the lac
